What we’re called out for in Merry Hill

By the time a bath is a few decades old, it may have a mix of issues: dull areas, chips, rust and staining. Resurfacing sorts them out together.

Most people get in touch when they notice something like this:

  • Stains that will not shift
  • Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
  • A coloured bath you want in white
  • A coating lifting around the plughole

Before you book anyone

  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

How to compare quotes

DIY repairs versus a professional job

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

Repairs by material

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Pressed steel

Steel baths re-enamel well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Steel frequently rusts by the plughole, so we check it carefully.

For landlords and businesses

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

How it works

The work is clean and fairly quiet. We protect the area first, then the work takes the best part of a day. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
  2. Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
  3. We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
  4. The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
  5. The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the next day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

How to get a price

Merry Hill: your questions answered

Do you resurface freestanding baths?

Yes. We can do the inside and outside.

Are there extra charges for Merry Hill?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

What happens after I send photos?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Does the bath have to be removed?

No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so the tiles and taps stay put.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

How long does re-enamelling last?

Look after it and it lasts. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.

Do you cover the whole of Wolverhampton?

Across the UK, and that includes Merry Hill. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.

How we price bath re-enamelling

Resurfacing from £350. We do not charge extra for travel to Merry Hill. The price depends on:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Doing more than one item at once

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

Send photos for a quote

Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will say immediately if a repair is the right fix.

When we would advise against a repair

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
  • Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off
  • A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.

Materials we repair

  • Basins & shower trays
  • Victorian roll-tops
  • Cast iron baths
  • Acrylic baths
  • Pressed steel baths

How to care for the repair

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
  • Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
  • Keep suction mats out of the bath
  • Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away

The first few days matter most: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.

The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and any rust spreads underneath. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
